we poor pilgrims have the Odious
name heaped upon us, though our

enough to make a fellow look a little
green when he secs so many stalwarts

struggle for the preservation OF the
Union and the liberties which they
enjoy. They have right to feel
proud of their Herculea, strength
and say "old pilgrim pass along and
give us young bucks room according

The precious metals-gold and silver

value. Human ins. met insist $ money

OF the human mind is to gauge and
measure values, and though men differ
in this, all alike recognize values i'm the
precious metals. They fully satisfy
the instincts of savage and civilized
minds alike. and this is so marked
that nl,ny believe that tlseir t,se WAS
drreed by One whose laws change not :.
They demonstrated the law Of adap-
tation in that they combine all the
necessary attributes OF money, namely.
great density, perfect divisihi!ity, Fer-
feet ductility. purity. resistaMe to
cOrrosiOn and inde-tructibility from
fire, and they are the only two metals
that have these attributes. With these
qualities inherent in them, their perfect
adap;ability as measures OF values is
made the more manifest because. while
generally difftised throughout the
earth, their quantities are so limited
that, since the beginning OF time. it has
been impossible to produce either in
sufficient quantities to suddenly in
rre.se the money stock and unduly
di-,'urb values. I'lie present disturb

favored ones of them are presently but the
women who appear ON the stage-the taw-
dry, bedizzened. short t-skirted, painted
singers and dancers whose living is gener-
ally less dependent upon their stage rala-
ries than what they capture from less ls.git-
innate sources. The ''wine-bloke' is their

When Washington died Hamilton
saw that there was little left for him
in public life. He had never taken up
the implements of scandal and in
trig,ie to match his unscrupulOus en-
emies, but he determined that the
remnant of the Federal party should
not be used by Aaron Burr, either to
be elected to the presidency or to be-
come governor of New York. As badly
as jefferson had pursued Hamilton,
the latter believed that he was only
an excited and suspicious man, and
not necessarily wicked one, and the

lenged HamiltOn's = son and killed him
on the duelling ground. Next Burr
The occasion of this duel was merely
a half-respOnsibIe publication by one
DR.. Charles ID. Cooper. This writing
contained HamiltOn's real opinion of
Burr, though not rs to what he had
said as to that person, but Burr de-
nlanded not merely that he deny the,
authority, but the opinion. In point
Of fact Hamilton believed that Burr
was "A despcable character and SO he
was, as all his subsequent life proved.
Both these men having been revolu-
tionary officers, and the public Opin-
ION ut that time sanctiOning duels,
Hamilton had to go to the fatal
ground.
The Incidents OF the duel, though
often described, arecomparativelyu un-

lie received the greatest funeral ever
held up to that time IN the United
States. His old war horse. dressed in
mourning followed. his bier, and on his
coffin were his generals hat and

else than contempt for the rest Of his
life, though he filed for "a little while

that iniescribable condition Of mental,
moral and physical degradation which
is best expressed by the term /" tramp.
These wretehed creatures, who, under
natural conditions would nearly all
have been useful men, now swarm upon
the highways and infect the towns OF
every county in our State.
In Alameda, a second-class county,
during six months of the year 1855
over four hundred tramps were con-
victed aud imprisoned for vagrancy.
Such are the fruits OF our present
system of private property in land,
by which u few hundred men are
ena bled to own and hohl the natural
opportunities of millions. Az the
natural and necessary result OF this
great curse. we may truly say with
Goldsmith:
